I have this little script that Can hide and un hide a weapon.
It is working fine, but as soon as you pick up more than two weapons , then when you hide any weapon from slot 2,3,or 4 , when you un hide the weapon , it does not go back to the last weapon slot, it goes back to slot one.
With only two weapons it works correctly.
Somewhere I'm doing something totally wrong.


How can i fix it.?

I can't see how that script does anything tbh, at least not on its own.

collect_weapon is set to 0 so the if check on line 15 cannot be true.
give_back is set to 1 so the if check on line 30 cannot be true.

when i pick up a weapon i have a variable called collect_weapon in the weapon.lua script that become 1 so that is how the first if can work
and give_back is set to 1 in the top of the script, so once the first if becomes true it set the give_back to 0 then the last if can be true.

just copy the script and test it and see, then you will see what i am talking about.

Ok. thank so so much , i have tested your no_weapon script you gave , and it also made the same problem.
Then i realized that i was testing the no_weapon script with the weapon.lua script you rote for dropping / swapping guns.
As soon is i was using the original GG weapon.lua then both my script and yours are working 100% fine.
That Means that some were in this weapon.lua script you rote , there must be some thing that is not compatible with the no_weapon script

Here is the weapon script you rote a wile back.

My guess is that this weapon script are using the weapon slot.
It is a fantastic weapon.lua script ,
i would so much like to use it together with the no _weapons. lua script.
It is above my knowledge to see what i have to change to get it to work.

did you try changing the number of weapons you can carry?
local max_Weapons = 2 -- nuimber of weapons the player can carry

@ Amen, Ok looks like i got it to work.
Like i said, my programing skill is very bad, but if i remove this part in the weapon.lua script

Then both our no_weapon.lua scripts work fine.
Even if i adjust ( local max_Weapons = 3 -- number of weapons the player can carry ) every thing still test out ok.
Maybe somewhere something else is not going to work by removing the above part, but so far everything seems to work ok.
You can check and see what will go wrong without this part, like i said it seems to work ok.
I even test to see Ammo count and Ammo pick up even that looks fine.
The only thing i must add is to stop player from swapping a weapon if it is in hide mode, other than that it looks fine.
